Medicinal Marijuana
Ryan asked:

I have my medical marijuana card and am currently trying to grow a few plants to cut back on the cost of buying from my dispensary. I am making an area in my yard for a garden, and was just wondering if the plants need to be hit directly by the ray of the sun throughout the day. Basically will being in the shade a few hours a day (from when the sun goes below the fence line) cut off the growth elements it gets from the sun? or is the light still somehow absorbed.

    Marijuana requires full sun. However, a few hours of indirect sun in the afternoon should not be a problem.

    Grow them exactly how you would tomatoes. And yes, just like tomatoes, marijuana plants do best with as much direst sunlight as possible.

    Get Em’ hot hot hot, full sun baby so those girls can grow big and fat. Some afternoon shade should be fine, but may stunt the growth.
